Selling Off Livestock

[bbeddow]

Hey Guys, unfortunately I need to get out of the hobby for how. Recent financial issues are forcing a few changes in our life and I need to get out for a while. I really need to get the tank tore-down and into storage within the next few weeks, so I need to sell-off all of the livestock ASAP. As you can see from my pics (in the gallery) the tank has an Aiptasia problem which I’m currently fighting. I have a few pics in my gallery, which are very small, but I can email larger pics for anyone interested.

1) Green Favia â€"œ $30
2) Brain Coral - $30
3) Green Candy Coral - $30
4) Green Carpet Anemone â€"œ $60
5) Mushroom (Rhodactis Inchoata) â€"œ $30 - I would prefer to sell with the rock they are attached.
6) Unknown Mushroom Colony â€"œ $20 - I would prefer to sell with the rock they are attached.
7) Several Toadstool Leather Frags â€"œ $10 - I would prefer to sell with the rock they are attached.
8) One is very large (Approx 1ft in diameter) - $50 - I would prefer to sell with the rock they are attached.
9) Crocea Clam - $60
10) Sea Cucumber â€"œ $10
11) Maroon Clownfish Pair - $30 for pair
12) Foxface Rabbitfish - $20
13) Yellow Tang - $20
14) Kole Eye Tang â€"œ $20
15) Algae Blenny â€"œ $20
16) Approximately 200lbs of live rock which I will let go for $1.50/lb once clean from the Aiptasia. My plan is to pull the rock from tank once the corals are sold and scrub it under fresh water since I’m short on time.


I live in Longmont if anyone is interested in dropping by to take a look. And let me know if anyone has any question.

Thanks,

Brian

Intrested in the anemone. Do you have pics?

 

[bbeddow]

I will try to get pics of the anemone. He recently moved to an area between the rear glass and rocks so he's not as visible.

I'll take the cucumber. Do you have any snails or clean up crew?

...Scott

 

[bbeddow]

Hey sounds Scott. I know it probably sounds odd, but I'm not totally sure what is left in the tank as far as the clean-up crew is concerned. As you know over time those critters tend to disappear and I haven't added any new additions in probably two years. But, you’re certainly welcome to anything as far as snails, hermits, etc that we can find.

Brian,

Well its a bummer to see you getting out of the hobby. I know things get tough,especially in this economy. I still remember where you live, you going to be around tomorrow?

Thanks,
Scott

 

[bbeddow]

Sounds good Scott. I will be around all weekend.

How big is the algae blenny?

 

[bbeddow]

I can probably give you a more accurate number when I get home this evening, but I would estimate around 5".

 

[Off The Deep End]

Hey Brian can you give us an updated list of what you have left?

 

[bbeddow]

I have had several people asking, but not many have actually showed-up to look, so basically everything remains except the kole eye tang. At this point everything is game until people actually show.

Also, I apologize if I missed any PM's. I had received several and I might have missed replying.

Thanks for asking.

I can be reached on my cell at 720-270-7295.

Thanks brian everything looks great in the tank!!

 

[jimmyhof]

I could come tomorrow for the algae blenny. Let me know if you intend on catching it first or while I am there.

 

[marcus.breaux]

Hey Brian,

I am leaving Estes Park tomorrow morning and intend on coming through Longmont. Is there any way that I could come by tomorrow? I am interested in the big toadstool and possibly some other livestock.

 

[bbeddow]

Sounds good Marcus, I should be home all day. I will update my post as far as what items remain, but the toadstool is still available.

Hey guys, just wanted to let everyone know that I injured my eye yesterday working in the garage and had to go to urgent care. Fortunately it was only a scratch but the doctor said to take it easy for the next couple of days so I think I should "stand-down" for now as far as selling livestock. I should be available sometime this week if anyone wants to stop by. Sorry for the iinconvenience.

Sorry to hear about your eye Brian, even a small scratch on your eye feels like a huge gash. The mushrooms are looking great, they've all opened up nicely, as did the small toadstools. Thanks man, feel better.
